Don’t call it a comeback: thanks to the fashion world’s ironic sense of humour our favourite ’90s hair nightmares are being brought back from the unfashionable dead. Next stop on the nostalgia train, the wacky world of crimped hair. Just when you thought the days of having hair that resembled a Ruffles chip were over, crimping has taken hold again. Zac Posen debuted a crimped hairstyle at his fall 2013 show and is being hailed for making the notoriously cheesy style chic once again. Rest assured that this new iteration of crimped style is a bit more refined than its ’90s original. The John Frieda-styled crimps were brushed through and subtly styled into a relaxed chignon. Paired with a dark burgundy lip, crimping 2.0 at Zac Posen made us almost forget the hairstyle’s past errors and let it reign free once again.
